The 28 is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the element silicon.
ALL silicon atoms have 14 protons in the nucleus, so we can turn this into an equation:
#protons + #neutrons = 28
14 + #neutrons = 28
#neutrons = 14
#protons = 14

Answer: 14 protons and  14 neutrons

Explanation:

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons that are present in an atom.

Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of protons = 14

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons = 28

Number of protons + Number of neutrons = 28

14 + Number of neutrons = 28

Number of neutrons = 14

Thus there are 14 protons and  14 neutrons in ^{28}_{14}\textrm {Si}

A gas with a volume of 250 mL at a temperature of 293K is heated to 324K. What is the new volume of the gas?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

The new volume of the gas is 276.45 mL.

Explanation:

Charles's law indicates that for a given sum of gas at constant pressure, as the temperature increases, the volume of the gas increases, and as the temperature decreases, the volume of the gas decreases.

Charles's law is a law that mathematically says that when the amount of gas and pressure are kept constant, the quotient that exists between the volume and the temperature will always have the same value:

\frac{V}{T} =k

Analyzing an initial state 1 and a final state 2, it is satisfied:

\frac{V1}{T1} =\frac{V2}{T2}

In this case:

  • V1= 250 mL
  • T1= 293 K
  • V2= ?
  • T2= 324 K

Replacing:

\frac{250 mL}{293 K} =\frac{V2}{324 K}

Solving:

V2=324 K*\frac{250 mL}{293 K}

V2= 276.45 mL

<em><u>The new volume of the gas is 276.45 mL.</u></em>
